Dave Mustaine of Megadeth talks to Alex Jones to “clarify” recent statements about deadly U.S. shootings

Dave Mustaine of Megadeth wanted to “clarify” his recent statement that Barack Obama was responsible for the recent mass shootings in Colorado and Wisconsin, making as appearance on conspiracy theorist Alex Jones show today. Mustaine told the crowd in Sigapore on August 7th, “Back in my country, my president is trying to pass a gun ban. So he’s staging all of these murders, like the Fast And Furious thing down at the border and Aurora, Colorado, all the people that were killed there. And now the beautiful people at the Sikh temple. I don’t know where I’m gonna live if America keeps going the way it’s going because it looks like it’s turning into Nazi America.”

Mustaine told Jones, “To clarify things, no one can deny there were criminal rogues in the administration. CBS News got the memos, Congress has the information and basically, Larry Pratt, the head of Gun Owners Of America, who is a highly respected person, said that if they would stage ‘Fast And Furious,’ they’d be capable of staging everything. And it was all done to blame the Second Amendment. We’d be fools not to look at this. Our U.S. border patrol agents were killed. And like I said, I was just quoting Larry Pratt. That’s it bottom line.”

He added, “In the heat of the moment, when you’re onstage and you’re talking, sometimes you’re not as eloquent as you’d like to be. Like I said, I was just quoting what Larry said. We really need to investigate this and we need to have the Attorney General release the documents and find out who’s responsible for this. People died and the democratic process says, ‘Let’s investigate this. Let’s find out what’s going on here.’ I love our country and my whole thing with this is that I think we should just look into it. . . I just think that we deserve to know the truth — that’s it. I’m a patriot. I’ve always been controversial. I’m a political songwriter. And this wasn’t done to hurt any our my fellow countrymen. I think that it’s something that we really, really need to look into.”
